Door to Door, Knock or No-Knock?

Knocking doors has been a huuuuge (Donald Trump voice) success for us. Give me an afternoon and a good area and I can generate $1500 worth of business (on a good day). I’ve had days where I don’t get any as well but usually I’m making at least 2 or 3 sales. Knocking Doors is really the best way to convince people that don’t even know they want the service that window cleaning is a good idea. People are pissed sometimes but others are impressed with your ambition and initiative. I encourage you to try it. I added 200 customers this way last summer.

It’s not for everyone but if you are just starting out and don’t have the extra cash, it’s a great way to grow quickly spending only time (which you usually have a lot of when you are starting out).

Yes, it covers avoidance, but also covers the legality of door hangers and flyers if it were ever to go to court. Some municipalities do restrict this, but push comes to shove would not hold up in court. Some gated communities ban this even in communities that understand it’s acceptance.
I’m just saying it isn’t illegal. If one chose to fight the permit (i.e. pay me to do what I say you can’t do) they have the Supreme Court ruling on their side.

Perhaps so Garry, but even THEY say they get permits. So IMO, the point is ever so moot, about the court ruling.

Rather than make an ass of myself with the cops, local government, not to mention making a spectacle of myself and all the lawyer bills I would be paying…

I’ll stick to using people’s newspaper boxes.

I know a couple of guys down south, who started a business doing targeted flyering, and even they aren’t going to push the issue. Just not worth it.
